Weather can change for better or worse in minutes, and you will be unable to skydive unless you are at the supplier’s Drop Zone. Weather conditions and other unforeseen circumstances can also require the supplier to alter the altitude of the skydive. As aircraft are mechanical and periodically become unavailable, the supplier reserves the right to change aircraft type without notice.
